Antenna System Overview Antenna System Overview Antenna System Overview Antenna System Overview A complete satellite TV system, illustrated in Figure 1-1, includes WSTA-DP250PMS antenna connected to a IDU, a satellite TV receiver, and a television set. Campingman DP250PMS Antenna Unit... -
Page 6: Direct Broadcast Satellite Overview
Satellite Overview Direct Broadcast Service (DBS) satellites broadcast audio, video and data information from satellites located 22,000 miles in space. A receiving station, such as WSTA-DP250PMS antenna, should include a dish and satellite receiver to receive the signals and process them for use by the consumer audio and video equipment. -

Page 9: Preparing For The Installation
Install Tools and Materials WSTA-DP250PMS antenna system is designed for simple installation and setup. However, the following list of equipment or items should be available during installation of WSTA- DP250PMS antenna. ■ Electric drill and drill bits ■... -
Page 10: Selecting The Location
2. The antenna is at least 5 feet away from other transmitting antennas (HF, VHF and radar) that may generate signals that may interfere with WSTA-DP250PMS antenna. The further away WSTA-DP250PMS antenna is from these other antennas, the less impact their operation will have on it. -

5. The following describes the basic wiring configurations for DP250PMS antenna. ■ Connect the Coaxial cable to WSTA-DP250PMS antenna port on the back of IDU ■ Connect one end of the supplied coaxial cable to the receiver port on the back of the IDU ■... - Page 12 LNB Center Line (-) Direction (+) Direction Attention – The Model Megasat Campingman TAS (Twin Auto Skew) work full automatically Do not work on the auto skew system (only for engineer). The correct skew setting varies depend on your geographic location, since the orient-tation of your antenna to the satellite changes as you move.

Satellite Coverage Map” In addition, since TV satellites are located above the equator, WSTA-DP250PMS antenna must have a clear view of the sky to receive satellite TV signals. Anything that stands between the antenna and the satellite can block the signal, resulting in lost reception. -
Page 14: Watching Tv
Watching TV Watching TV WSTA-DP250PMS antenna is designed to operate as efficiently and as reliably as possible when the vehicle is moved and anchored. It is also the quickest satellite acquisition system available among WSTA-DP250PMS antennas. If you have anchored the vehicle and the antenna has completed to searching selected satellite, turn off IDU Power to avoid unnecessary use of power. - Page 15 Functions of LCD Display You can change Power S/W the satellite by It is tracking a pushing this satellite.

Page 18: Appendix A How To Set The Skew Angle
Satellite Signal Blocked The WSTA-DP250PMS Antenna needs a clear line of sight (LOS), view to the satellite for uninterrupted reception. Objects such as tall lighthouse, bridges and big ship that block this view will cause a loss of signal. The signal will be quickly restored once the antenna has a clear line of sight again. - Page 19 European Position Grid European Position Grid European Position Grid European Position Grid If you wish to determine the Skew Angle(LNB), use the position grid(Figure A-1 European Position Grid) and table(TableA-1 Regional Skew angle) on page Figure A-1 Europe Position Grid If you wish to set the correct skew, see “TableA-1 Regional Skew angle”.
